About Fast Purge

Fast Purge is a web interface available on the Control Center that lets you
refresh specific cached objects or remove all objects by URLs, content provider (CP) codes,
cache tags, and ARLs across the Akamai edge network in just
a few seconds. This is extremely useful, especially in situations when you need to quickly
correct mistakes in your published content. You can automate your content purge requests via
the Fast Purge API.
